History YMMV / Bugbo

* MemeticMutation: "Hey, you can't be here! I'm giving a speech!"[[note]]The most famous scene of "Under the Oak," where Bugbo interrupts the mayor's speech before abruptly turning him into a skeleton offscreen, killing him. This scene is often taken out of context for laughs, and it has also gotten some edits, such as playing the beginning of "Bad to the Bone" when the mayor's skeleton is shown.[[/note]]

** When the Red Brother appears in ''A Familiar Foe'', he pops out of nowhere right when Gerbo says they'd need one to get out of their predicament, gives them what appears to be a glowing blue mushroom-shaped bag, leaves and is never mentioned again. Mitigated somewhat by the fact that the snake that was inside the bag is used to get Gerbo and Gradient Joe up the mountain.

* EnsembleDarkHorse: The moment Thomas Flyswatter made his debut in ''A Familiar Foe'', a lot of people were immediately enthralled by his [[CartoonishSupervillainy cartoon villain]] persona. [[FanartAtFirstSight Fanart of him was even made the day the episode was released]]!

** [[spoiler:The Stone Merchant]]'s death in "Set in Stone." When Gradient Joe tries to make a deal with him, he lets out an ''agonizing'' scream without warning as his body rearranges itself and the screen gets glitchy, until all that's left is [[spoiler:a pile of lifeless rocks]].

** Thomas Flyswatter's theme is a fire track that stands out because its reminsicent of Creator/TobyFox's music.

* DiagnosedByTheAudience: Fans speculate (or even [[{{Fanon}} headcanon]]) that Bugbo is autistic, due to showing symptoms of the disorder.

** "Under the Oak" has a subtle example. Bugbo's ThisIsGonnaSuck reaction, saying "Oh," when Gradient Joe has to give a speech despite not being able to talk. It's funny the first time that Bugbo says it due to the {{Beat}} beforehand. But when Gerbo starts panicking, and all Bugbo can say is "Oh" again, it becomes much creepier. It really makes it clear that he has a total LackOfEmpathy.

* SugarWiki/AwesomeArt: The series uses {{Retraux}} Adobe Flash-style animation. While the artwork itself may look a bit crude, the way the characters are animated is very expressive and memorable. Special mention goes to the mayor in "Under the Oak," whose movements are brimming with a haughty and pompous personality.
